Electrical Room/Closet with swinging doors to exterior

[apelkner]

I know that your working space can overlap doors such as in a shallow electrical closet, but what if those doors lead to the exterior of a building? Should you try to keep your working space confined within the room (thinking about outdoor conditions like rain, storms, etc)? Is there a code reference?

Thanks.

Working space for outdoor equipment is the same, and its been known to storm outside.

Should you try to keep your working space confined within the room?

Should you? I should. Would it be a code violation if you don't? It would not. As to code references, try the second sentence of 90.1(B). :happyyes:
